Several header files need info on CONFIG_32BIT or CONFIG_64BIT,
but kconfig symbol BCM63XX does not provide that info. This leads
to many build errors, e.g.:

Note: I did see a bunch of build errors like this one:
../arch/mips/kernel/r4k_fpu.S:217: Error: opcode not supported on this processor: mips1 (mips1) `ldc1 $f24,192($4)'
but I'm hoping/guessing that this is due to not having a proper compiler
for the BCM63xx target.

That's one option, the other could be to add:

         select SYS_HAS_CPU_BMIPS32_3300
         select SYS_HAS_CPU_BMIPS4350
         select SYS_HAS_CPU_BMIPS4380

Which would ensure that CPU_SUPPORTS_32BIT_KERNEL is selected AFAICT. Can you try that? What config file did you use to produce that build error BTW?

The .config file that is attached to this report from the kernel test robot:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/202111051920.dcCUQ0QN-lkp@xxxxxxxxx/

Yes, I'll give your suggestion a try on Saturday.

OK, that works also. I'll send a v2 with that.

However, with that kernel .config file, it does expose another
unrelated longstanding build error:

/opt/crosstool/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux-ld: drivers/iio/adc/ingenic-adc.o: in function `jz4725b_adc_init_clk_div':

I prepared a patch for that on April 26, 2021, but it looks like I never sent it.
Oh, it's incomplete, not really working yet.
Any comments on how to really fix this problem?

From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

MIPS does not always provide clk*() interfaces and there are no
always-present stubs for them, so depending on "MIPS || COMPILE_TEST"
is not string enough to prevent build errors.

Likewise MACH_INGENIC_SOC || COMPILE_TEST is not strong enough
since if only COMPILE_TEST=y, there are still the same build errors.

Can we fix the dissonance between HAVE_CLK and COMMON_CLK?

Say yes here to build support for the Ingenic JZ47xx SoCs ADC unit.




thanks.
